Looking into a new cartridge and ordered a Jelco HS20 headshell. Doing some research realized the manual says 54" overhang and I believe mine is set to 52" Technics standard.
What do my fellow PLX1000 owners use to align their new cartridges with? If 52" works roll with it or should I use a specific protractor or over hang gauge towards 54" a suggestion? I have my assumptions but was curious on others opinions.
Would a MoFi Geo-Disc also work for aligning a cartridge on a MoFi Studiodeck?I used a MoFi Geo Disc with mine. Worked great.

The Technics measurement would be accurate if the Pioneer’s tonearm is the same length without the headshell, the same distance from pivot to spindle, the same offset angle, and the same intended null points. That’s a lot to assume is the same unless the design team precisely copied the Technics geometry.Looking into a new cartridge and ordered a Jelco HS20 headshell.

What are people's experiences with anti skate on the PLX? I realize every cart could be different but still curious. Have read conflicting info online. My current cart has 1.8 tracking force and have anti skate around 3. Some people online suggest 1 is actually 0. Anybody else notice this?
With "blank disc" method what are good cheap ones I can find? I'm assuming just test on acrylic plaster would wear stylus pretty fast but saw that suggested too.
I know you no longer have this table but by chance was yours one off or double the VTF when you adjusted it? If you remember, I know varies cart to cart.The anti skate spring is weak in these. You’ll end up with a high number indicated on the dial. It still works though.
Don’t use a blank record to set anti skate. Get any album with a large dead wax. Set the anti skate so the arm moves towards the label as slowly as possible while it’s in the dead wax.
